Vibe Merchants offers an insider's perspective on the development
of Jamaican Popular Music, researched and analysed by a thirty-year
veteran with a wide range of experience in performance, production
and academic study. This rare perspective, derived from interviews
and ethnographic methodologies, focuses on the actual details of
music-making practice, rationalized in the context of the economic
and creative forces that locally drive music production. By
focusing on the work of audio engineers and musicians, recording
studios and recording models, Ray Hitchins highlights a music
creation methodology that has been acknowledged as being different
to that of Europe and North America. The book leads to a broadening
of our understanding of how Jamaican Popular Music emerged,
developed and functions, thus providing an engaging example of the
important relationship between music, technology and culture that
will appeal to a wide range of scholars.
